The copy containing the revisor's certificate must be filed in the office of the secretary of state as a public record. All other copies of the edition must contain a printed copy of the certificate.

The cost of composition, printing, and delivery of the pamphlets, together with a reasonable fee for the revisor's services, is to be borne by the office or department requesting them.
